AnIncident of the War.

Fred Conner writes to the National
Tribune at Washington and relates
this amusing incident of war times:
We had gone into winter quarters at
Charleston, w. Va. Some recruits
had arrived for the thirty-six Ohio,
and one of them was finding fault with
the government for not putting more
pockets in his blouse. 1t happened
that the wife of Gen. r. B. Hayes was
ON visit to the general, and was
stopping at headquarters. Some of
the bows told the grumbler that he
could get pocket put in his blouse;
that Gen. Hayes kept q seamstress at
headquarters on purpose to patch
their clothes and sew on buttons,
YES" said one, "the general is al
ways on the lookout for the welfare
of his men. Only the other day
he had O. man arrested for sew
ing on some buttons. The idea of
q soldier patching his clothes when
the general has woman for
that purpose. If you want another
pocket in your blouse take it to the
general. you will find the lady there.
Tell them what you want and you
will soon get it." He was soon on
his way to headquarters, while we
watched to see the fun. The recruit
marched up and the general returned
his salute and said: "Well, my good
man, what can l do for your" "Gen-
eral, the boys told me there was a
woman here to sew for the soldiers.
and l wanted to get a pocket put in
this blouse" Before the general
could answer, Mrs. Hayes spoke up
aud said; Certainly, certainly; leave
your blouse for an hour or SO and you
shat have q pocket in it," When the
soldier returned with the pocket in
his blouse, and the boys told him
who the lady was we realized that we
had carried the joke to far.

The "agnostic" is one who processes
utter ignorance of the spiritual world,
and claims that nothing can be known
OF a personal Deity. The word Gag
nostlcism,"t after considerable re-
search has been traced to Professor
Huxley, who originated and first used
it publicly in 1869. A writer in the
quarterly review of January, 1874, in
describing the views of James Mill,
gave without intending it a very good
definition of agnosticlsm. Speaking
of Mill, the writer says, "He repudi-
ated all inquiry into the causation
and origin OF the world, all question
OF the whence and whittier as hopeless
and inscrutable, accepting agnosti-
cism las we have heard it called as
his only possible creed"

Marriage Mirth.

A man who applied to the Comfy
Clerk Martin for marriage license
the other day was so nervous that he
forgot the name of the woman whom
he was about to marry, and had to
60 to her house three times before he
could remember her name longenough
to tell it to the Clerk. Each time he
went to the house she had to repeat
her name over to HIM several times,
and as soon as he reached the Clerk s
office he could not remember it, until
at the end OF the third trip, by a
strong effort he managed to think OF
the name.-Santa Cruz (Cal.) Sen

This story originated in another
locality, but they localize it in Georgia
now. A fair and buxom widow, who
had buried three husbands, recently
went with a gentleman who in his
younger years had paid her marked
attention, to inspect the graves of her
dead departed. After contemplating
them in mournful silence she murmur-
ed to her companion: "Ah, James,
you might have been in that row now
if you had only had a little more
courage"

Approve the knights of Labor.

ROME, March 1.-The American bishops
take a favorable view of the Knights OF
Labor Cardinal Gibbons has placed before
the Vatican a formal statement as to the nat
ure of the organization and the attitude
the church should adopt toward it. The
cardinal says in this:
He considers any condemnation of the Knights
be not only useless, but highly inopportune, and
it might ALLEVIATE the sympathy of the American
labor1ng classes from the church and hamper
the mission of the church to the laboring poor.
The primate treats alarmist theories respecting
the Knights of Labor as puerile and says that
nearly one-third of the men belonging to the
organization are Catholics. 1t is not secret 50
ciety in the sense condemned by the church,
and consequently exempt from canonical CEN
sure. In Cannda the case is different. He con-
siders the organization of the Knights of Labor
in the United States not only harmless, but pos
sibly beneficial in assisting in the eventual set
Element of the great question of the proper rela-
tions between labor and capital.
